The food we eat is usually pretty safe; there are standards used to keep harmful chemicals from making it onto our plates. However, body care products don’t have similar standards. Shampoos, soaps, lotions, and makeup all contain chemicals that can harm your skin or even cause cancer. Mineral face makeup, on the other hand, shouldn’t contain these harmful chemicals and are much safer for daily use. Plus, they look great, feel light on your skin, last forever, and can be used on all skin types. Other cultures have used natural makeup for centuries, why not try some on your skin?

While some of the artificial chemicals in traditional makeup products may be considered safe, it’s still possible that you’ll react poorly to them. If may be that you have an allergy to traditional makeup and don’t even know it. What you think is just unpreventable acne may actually be a reaction to the makeup or other products you put on your skin. Mineral face makeup is hypoallergenic so it isn’t likely to contribute to your breakouts and other skin conditions.

[ad#ad-2] In addition to the fact that mineral face makeup doesn’t harm your skin, the natural ingredients actually nourish your skin making it more healthy and radiant. It allows your skin to breathe without zapping out all the moisture, and it even protects you from the damaging rays of the sun. Imagine, your skin looking and feeling better because you’re wearing make-up.

To cover up imperfections with a normal makeup, you need concealer, foundation, and powder. And most of the time, your skin imperfections still show right through. Mineral makeup provides great coverage for skin imperfections, acne, and even rosacea. With mineral makeup, anyone can look like they have beautiful skin. And isn’t that what makeup is for?

Mineral make-up is easier to use. You don’t have to worry about blending. You just brush it on as you buff it in. It’s quick and easy. Plus, it lasts all day so you don’t have to keep reapplying to keep your skin looking fantastic without looking cakey or overly madeup.

Currently, there are little to no restrictions as to what can go into “natural makeup”. Many times the company will put a few natural ingredients in along with a slew of harmful chemicals and claim the product is natural. You can verify that a product is natural by looking for guaranteed seals, such as from the USDA. Just be sure you know what the seal you’re trusting means (what do they check, what percent must be natural, etc). ou can also simply read through the ingredients list. If you can’t pronounce an ingredient name, don’t buy the product.

So if you’re looking for makeup that looks great, feels great, and can even improve the condition of your skin, mineral face makeup is the way to go.
